Ffzzles Out.

The st. Johnsbury Shirt Factory Scheme
Ffzzles Out.
That was rather a funny meeting
that the shirt factory folks had last
Friday night in the town hall. There
was an unexpectedly large attendance.
Mr.. Hastings read his report as sum-
married. in these columns last week
and then the company settled down to
the business-of asking questions and
making comments. 1t wasn't very
lively meeting. 1t was found that
about $500 of the needed $685. 900 had
actually been subscribed and that
enough to bring the sum total up to
$4,000 had been promised. Judge
questions as to the why and wherefore
of the desired removal of the company
from Rutland. DR.. Billiard thought if
st. Johnsbury wanted to go into the
shirt business the people had best put
in their money, choose directors and
go ahead regardless of Rutland. Things
dragged along slower still after this.
An occasional question was asked but
nobody responded to the frequent APP
peals for subscriptions.
Finally Ed. L. Hovey took the floor.
Recalling Mr.. Hovey's energetic sup
port of the Opera house scheme of
some years ago the audience (what
there was left of it) felt that he was
the man for this occasion and such he
proved to be. Mr.. Hovey was down
on the paper for $500, and when he
calmly declared that any man who
would put money into the proposed
shirt factory expecting ever to see it
again or to receive a dividend from the
investment was fool, or words to
that effect, it made an impression. Ev
cry word of this speech carried cOnvic-
ton with 1.-THE conviction that Mr..
Hovey hadn't any very serious idea of
engaging in the shirt business, if in
deed he has had from the first. Any
how, this speech caused a GOODNESS to
come over the meeting and Mr.. Hovey
retired apparently well satisfied with
his effort and the result. B. 6. Howe,
a subscriber for $1,000 worth of stock,
followed in much the same strain,
making the very sensible suggestion
that committee be appointed to con-
fer directly with the Rutland firm and
also making the somewhat startling
statement that the Rutland firm first
offered to invest $4,000 in the stock
of the new company, that later the Of
fer was reduced to $4,000, then to
S., 900 and finally to $500 and to pay
that in old machinery, something that
Mr.. LOOmis said he had never heard of
before, but which had the effect to cool
off any who might have retained any
warmth after Mr.. HOvey's speech.
Meanwhile the crowd had been grad
ually diminishing, the hour was grow
ing late and finally about all there
were left in the hall were those who
had eligible lots to sell to the new
company and the man who was ready
to fill up the new factory with sewing
machines at the lowest market rates,
and these adjourned sine die. The
next morning Mr.. LOOmis took the
train for BrattleborO where, as he
stated to the meeting the night before,
the board of trade had offered to raise
$4,000 toward the project, and the
st. Johnsbury shirt factory scheme
was at All end and the local papers de-
prived of very fruitful source of local
items.

for the use of depOsitOrs. On the first
page of each book are printed two
very sensible maxims, Feltham's, ''He
who, when he should not, spends too
much, shall, when he would not, have
too little to spend )" and the other by
Fuller, "PropOrtiOn thy expense to
what thou hast in possession, not to

to call attention to the following state =
